Prognostic Utility of the Preoperative Cachexia Index in Patients Undergoing Emergency Laparotomy
Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.The preoperative cachexia index, incorporating muscle mass, nutritional status, and inflammation, predicts in‐hospital and one‐year mortality in patients undergoing emergency laparotomy. This simple index may aid in risk stratification and perioperative decision‐making in high‐risk surgical patients. ABSTRACT Aim Emergency laparotomy is associated with

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.We systematically reviewed conversion therapy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and propose a response‐based treatment strategy for cT4b and M1 disease. For cT4b, we emphasize definitive chemoradiotherapy with timed re‐evaluation and selective salvage or chemoselection to surgery; for M1, conversion is reserved for limited‐burden responders with ...

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.A reliable and effective risk prediction model for mortality and morbidity in elderly patients undergoing gastroenterological surgeries was developed and validated. Geriatric‐specific risk factors, including the newly added variables in the NCD registry, along with age, were identified as significant contributors to the model. ABSTRACT Aim As the aging
